    Hey guys!

    Basically i am considering pulling the trigger on a Wacom cintiq 12" wx i do quite a bit of digital drawing work but still love the feedback of pan on paper,

    however the " convertor box " that takes the input signal only supports VGA or DVI. which the R2 doesn't have :(


    i know you can get convertors for hdmi > DVI but i was wondering if anyone here has used a cintiq sucsessfully with their R2

    I think it wouldnt be an issue as doesnt the Cintiq plug into usb as well for the pen? So all your getting is the display signal, in which case, I have a hdmi to dvi on mine now and it works fine.
